Fiftieth Milestone Happy Birthday Poem
It's my birthday today and I am choosing a poem to greet me on this beautiful birth day.
The Sunlight Is as Passionate as Flowers
The sunlight is as passionate as flowers, bordering the sidewalk of a song.
Clouds shape its golden apertures for hours, shifting with each breeze that comes along.
The day becomes a mustard-colored sunbeam falling through the window of your smile.
Mystical sensations, headed downstream, sit upon your windowsill awhile.
How beautifully the choir of the mountains sings to its rapt audience of blue!
As dancing down a corridor of fountains, we toss in coins and make this wish for you:
Long may you love the loveliness of Earth and celebrate with joy your day of birth.
"What I do today is important because I'm exchanging a day of my life for it."
~So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.~ Psalm 90:12
